Need Help: MacBook Pro (2013) Charging Issue After Sonoma Install

Hey guys having a little problem after installing Sonoma on my 2013 Mac Book pro. The OS itself is very responsive and I would 100% recommend it to anyone running old machines like that.

However Im facing a very undocumented problem regarding charging. I tested beforehands in Big Sur to make sure that this is a Software problem and not a Hardware problem.

My Mac Book Pro is running a brand new original battery with 10 cycles on it and is charging fine with original charger on Big Sur, battery life is also very good cause the battery is new.

In sonoma the laptop charges after initial boot up to 100% if and only if, it doesnt go to sleep, the charger doesnt disconnect. Anything related to that will put the computer in a "Connected not charging" mode without any other warning.

A simple restart resets all of it and the laptop can charge again no problem as long as it doesnt go to sleep or the charger isnt disconnected.

Here is what I tried to do to document my error:

-Tried with 2 different chargers both genuine apple no success.

-Went back to Big Sur and used it charges normally no bug.

-Wipped the SSD and reinstalled fresh Sonoma no success.

-Removed the secure charging function no success.

-Reset both SMC and PRAM reset works after restart but stops after sleep or disconnect.

-Restart works but stops after sleep or disconnect.

-Used the console to Log any event when disconnecting charge and reconnecting no success.

If you guys could help me in finding where that bug is coming from Im sure Im not the only one experiencing that so it would be cool to find a solution to help future Open Core users.

Please do request any logs if you think that can help.
